Unavailability of Funds; Crossing Fiscal Years.

a. Unavailability of Funds. In the event the School District, in its sole determination, does not or cannot obtain or continue the funding for this Contract from any source or sources at an aggregate level sufficient to allow for payment for the Work, the School District may exercise one of the following alternatives: (1) terminate this Contract effective upon a date specified in a Termination Notice; or (2) continue this Contract by reducing, through written notice to the Contractor, the amount of this Contract and the scope of the Work, consistent with the nature, amount and circumstances of the loss of funding. Any termination or reduction of this Contract pursuant to this subsection shall not affect any obligations or liabilities of either Party accruing prior to such termination or reduction. The School District shall not face any liability or penalty as a result of such termination or reduction of this Contract. b. Crossing Fiscal Years. If the School District will pay any portion of the Compensation in any School District fiscal year subsequent to the current fiscal year (the School District’s fiscal year runs July 1 – June 30), the portion of the Compensation that may accrue hereunder in a subsequent fiscal year remains subject to legally mandated budget authorization by the School Reform Commission, or the Board of Education, as the case may be, of the School District, under Applicable Law. If for any reason funds for that portion of the Compensation that may accrue hereunder in a subsequent fiscal year are not continued in any subsequent School District fiscal year, this Contract and the School District’s liability under this Contract shall automatically terminate at the end of the fiscal year for which the School Reform Commission or the Board of Education, as the case may be, authorized funds. 7.

The Contractor shall not take any action, or omit to act, if such act or omission would cause a breach or default under any such grant agreement, contract or trust indenture. b. Timely Submission of Invoices. If the School District pays any of the Compensation from federal government or Commonwealth of Pennsylvania grant funds, the Contractor shall bill the School District for any outstanding compensation owed to the Contractor within thirty (30) days after the end of the Term (see Section 3 of the Agreement for Services). In the event the Contractor does not bill the School District for the balance of any compensation within said thirty (30) day period, the School District reserves the right to withhold payment of the balance of the Compensation to the Contractor based upon the unavailability of federal government or Commonwealth of Pennsylvania funds, in which event the School District shall have no liability to the Contractor for said balance of the Compensation. 8. Independent Contractor. The School District has engaged the Contractor as an independent contractor to carry out the Work, and neither the Contractor nor any of the Contractor’s agents, employees or Subcontractors shall in any way or for any purpose whatsoever be deemed an agent or employee of the School District.

The School District shall not do business with any Person that unlawfully discriminates on the basis of age, race, color, sex, sexual orientation, handicap, disability, religious creed, ancestry, national origin or Vietnam-era or any other veteran status, or any other impermissible ground in hiring, promotion, subcontracting or procurement practices. The Contractor shall include the first three sentences of this Section 9, with appropriate adjustments for the identity of the parties, in any Subcontracts that it executes and delivers.

Subcontracts. a. School District Consent Required. The Contractor shall not delegate or enter into any Subcontract for the performance of any of its obligations under this Contract, including any portion of the Work, in whole or in part, without in each instance first giving notice to and obtaining the written consent of the School District, which consent the School District may grant, withhold, condition or delay in its sole discretion.

The Contractor shall at all times remain fully responsible for its Subcontractors, and shall ensure that it legally binds all Subcontractors to the same terms and conditions as the Contractor under this Contract, including without limitation, non-discrimination, warranties, confidentiality, maintenance and preservation of records and audit by government representatives. 11. Non-Assignment. The Contractor acknowledges that the Work constitutes personal or professional services, or both, of the Contractor. Except through a Subcontract subject to Section 10 above, the Contractor shall not assign this Contract, or any part of this Contract, nor delegate performance of any part of this Contract, without the prior written consent of the School District, which consent the School District may grant, withhold, condition or delay in its sole discretion. This Contract legally binds the Parties and their respective successors and assigns. Any purported assignment in violation of this provision shall be void and of no effect. The School District’s consent to an assignment shall not release the assignor from any liability accrued or thereafter accruing under this Contract. Any assignment shall be in writing and shall contain an express assumption by the assignee of all liability accrued or thereafter accruing under this Contract.

ANTI-DISCRIMINATION POLICY of the SCHOOL DISTRICT OF PHILADELPHIA SECTION 1.

THE POLICY

It is the policy of the School District of Philadelphia (the “District”) acting through and by the School Reform Commission (the “SRC”) to ensure equal opportunity in all contracts let by the District (the “Contracts”). In light of this policy, the District has adopted this Anti-discrimination Policy (the “Policy”) which is applicable to all Contracts, including but not limited to, Contracts for the design, development, construction, operation and maintenance of school buildings and other buildings and structures owned, leased or used by the District or its contractors, assignees, lessees and licensees (the “Facilities”); Contracts for professional services and Contracts for the purchase of goods, services, supplies and equipment for the District and the Facilities. The objective of the Policy is the promotion of prime contract and subcontract opportunities for minority and woman-owned business enterprises (“M/W/BEs”) that are approved by the District or they are certified by the Minority Business Enterprise Council of the City of Philadelphia, Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority or any other certifying agency designated by the District in its discretion. The fundamental requirement of the Policy is that all contractors, vendors and consultants, who contract with the District (the “Contractors”), satisfy the District that they will: (i) not discriminate against any person in regard to race, color, religion, age, national origin, sex, ancestry, handicap or disability; and (ii) provide a full and fair opportunity for the participation of M/W/BEs in Contracts. Contractors must demonstrate that the participation of M/W/BEs is “meaningful and substantial” in all phases of a Contract under criteria adopted by the District. “Meaningful and substantial” shall be interpreted by the District as meaning the range of participation that reflects the availability of bona fide M/W/BEs in the Philadelphia Metropolitan Statistical Area. Participation shall be measured in terms of the actual dollars received by M/W/BEs. “Minority” as used in this Policy, means Black American (all persons having origins in any of the Black African racial groups); Hispanic/Latino American (all persons of Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, Central or South American or other Spanish culture or origin); Asian Pacific Island American (all persons having origin in any of the original peoples of the Far East, Southeast Asia, the Indian Subcontinent, or the Pacific Islands); and Native American (all persons having origins in any of the original peoples of North America and maintaining identifiable tribal affiliations through membership and participation or community identification). SECTION 2.

PROCEDURES FOR IMPLEMENTATION

Articulation of the Policy, Staffing and Reporting The Office of General Counsel and Office of Small Business Development will develop language to be included in bid solicitations and requests for proposals which clearly sets forth the objective of the Policy (the “Solicitation Language”). District employees shall include the Solicitation Language in all bids, public solicitations and requests for proposals. The Policy shall be articulated to the public in general, and to each Contractor, assignee, lessee or licensee doing business with the District. The District may employ additional staff or contract with other public or private entities to assist in the implementation of the Policy. District staff shall provide the SRC with periodic reports on the levels M/W/BE participation in all contracting activities.

A14-46155 Page 26 of 60 Promotion of M/W/BEs The District recognizes the importance of having meaningful and substantial M/W/BE participation in all Contracts. To that end, the District will take steps to ensure that M/W/BEs are afforded a fair and equal opportunity to participate. Those steps may include but are not limited to: (i) making public contracting opportunities; (ii) advertising in newspapers and periodicals published by community-based organizations and M/W/BEs; and (iii) designing bid packages in such a way as to promote rather than discourage M/W/BE participation. Contracting Requirements Prior to the dissemination of any bid, request for proposals or public solicitation (the “Solicitation”), the District shall determine the projected range of M/W/BE participation in the area to be bid (the “Participation Range”), and may include this information, along with the names and addresses of bona fide M/W/BEs that are available for contracting or joint-venture opportunities with the Solicitation. Each bidder or respondent shall be required to submit: (i) a plan with its bid or proposal which meets the Participation Range set forth in the Solicitation and which lists the names, addresses, dollar amounts and scope of work to be performed by M/W/BEs (the “Participation Plan”); or (ii) a brief narrative explaining its reasons for not submitting a Plan which meets the Participation Range set forth in the Solicitation. Submission of the Participation Plan is an element of responsiveness and failure to submit a completed Participation Plan or a narrative explaining the reasons that the Participation Ranges could not be met may result in the rejection of a bid or proposal. If the Participation Range in a bid or proposal meets or exceeds the level determined by the District to be meaningful and substantial, there shall be a presumption of compliance with the Policy. If, however, the proposed Participation Range falls below the level determined by the District to be meaningful and substantial, the bidder or respondent must prove to the satisfaction of the District that it did not discriminate in the solicitation of potential subcontractors and/or joint venture partners. Sanctions The Participation Plan shall be a part of each Contract between the District and a Contractor and shall be enforceable as any other contractual term or condition. Sanctions for breach of a Participation Plan may include suspension, cancellation of the Contract and/or disbarment from future contracting opportunities with the District.

School District of Philadelphia Anti-Discrimination Policy

INSTRUCTIONS TO BIDDERS (TO BE INCLUDED IN BID DOCUMENTS AND REQUESTS FOR PROPOSALS)

SEPTEMBER 2003

A14-46155 Page 29 of 60

INSTRUCTIONS TO BIDDERS/PROPOSERS BIDDER RESPONSIBILITIES THE POLICY The School Reform Commission (“SRC”) adopted the Anti-Discrimination Policy (“Policy”) relating to the participation of Minority and Woman-Owned Businesses in School District (“District”) contracts. The purpose of this policy is to provide equal opportunity for all businesses and to ensure that School District funds are not used, directly or indirectly, to promote, reinforce or perpetuate discriminatory practices. The District is committed to fostering an environment, in which all businesses are free to participate in business opportunities, flourish without the impediments of discrimination and participate in all District contracts on an equitable basis. In accordance with the contracting requirements of the District, Policy is applicable to bids for supplies, services & equipment, design & construction contracts, and contracts for professional services. (See Attachment #1) PARTICIPATION RANGES The School District has contracted with the Minority Business Enterprise Council (MBEC) of the City of Philadelphia to establish ranges of participation for bids and Requests for Proposals, which serve as a guide in determining each bidder’s responsibility. These ranges represent the percentage of M/WBE participation that should be attained in the available market absent discrimination in the solicitation and selection of these businesses. These ranges are based upon an analysis of factors such as the size and scope of the contract and the availability of certified M/WBE’s to perform various elements of the contract. M/WBE Participation Forms are included in all applicable bid packages. These forms must be carefully reviewed and completed as the submission of a Participation Form with bids and responses to Requests for Proposals is an element of responsiveness and failure to submit a Participation Form will result in rejection of the Bid/RFP. (See Attachment #2) Participation ranges included in bids and requests for proposals represent the percentage of participation by M/WBE firms that reflects the availability of these firms ready and able to provide the services required by the solicitation. These participation ranges serve exclusively as a guide in determining bidder responsibility. CERTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS Only firms certified by an approved certifying agency prior to bid opening will be credited toward the participation ranges. Approved agencies include state and city certification offices, State Departments of Transportation, the Small Business Administration, National and Local Minority Supplier Development Councils; National Association of Women Business Owners and other identified certifying agencies approved by the School District. PARTICIPATION CREDIT M/WBE subcontractors and manufacturers and suppliers of products are credited toward the participation range at 100%. Bidders who utilize indirect contracting with M/WBE firms to satisfy the participation range may do so, however indirect participation may not exceed 25% of the requirement.

A14-46155 Page 30 of 60

In order to maximize opportunities for as many businesses as possible, a firm that is certified in two or more categories will only be credited toward one participation range as either an MBE or WBE. The firm will not be credited toward more than one category. Bidders will note with their submission which category; MBE or WBE is submitted for credit. A M/WBE submitting as the prime bidder will receive credit toward the participation ranges for its own work or supply effort. In listing amounts committed to on the Solicitation and Commitment Form, bidders should list both the dollar amount and percentage of total bid for each commitment made. In calculating the percentage amount, bidders may apply the standard mathematical rules in rounding off numbers. In the event of an inconsistency between the dollar and percentage amounts listed on the Participation Form, the amount, which results in the greater commitment, will be used. RESPONSIVENESS Bidders must submit documentary evidence of M/WBE’s who have been solicited and with whom commitments have been made. Documentation of all solicitations (regardless of whether commitments resulted there from) as well as all commitments made prior to bid opening shall be submitted, concurrently with the bid, on the enclosed document entitled “Participation Form”. If the bidder has entered into a joint venture with a M/WBE partner, the bidder must submit a copy of the joint-venture agreement along with the Participation Form. Failure to submit the required information on M/WBE participation will result in rejection of the bid as nonresponsive. (Bidders should note that only commitments that have been made prior to bid opening and listed on the Participation Form will be credited toward the participation ranges. Since the School District must ensure that all bidders respond on equal terms, a bid which indicates that the bidder will make commitments after bid opening will be rejected as non-responsive.) Upon award, the completed forms and accompanying documents regarding solicitation and commitments with M/WBE’s become part of the contract. A bidder should only make actual solicitations of M/WBE’s whose work or materials are within the scope of the invitation to bid. Mass mailing of a general nature will not be deemed solicitation, but rather will be treated as informational notification only. A reasonable period of time should be given to all solicited firms to ensure that they have sufficient time to adequately prepare their quotes. The bidder’s listing of a commitment with an M/WBE as described on the Participation Form constitutes a representation that the bidder has, prior to bid opening, made a binding commitment to contract with such firm, upon receipt of a contract award from the School District. BID REVIEW Upon receipt of bids for this contract, the bidder’s submittal will be subject to review by the SBD to determine whether the bidder has submitted a bid within each of the projected range(s) for M/WBE participation, if the ranges are met, the bidder will be rebuttably presumed not to have met the requirements Anti-Discrimination Policy in its selections. M/WBE percentage commitments are to be maintained throughout the term of the contract and shall apply to the total contract value (including approved change orders and amendments). Any change in commitment, including but not limited to substitutions for the listed firm(s), changes or reductions in the work and/or listed dollar/percentage amounts must be approved by the School District.

A14-46155 Page 31 of 60

ACCESS TO INFORMATION The Small Business Development Unit or designee shall have the right to make site visits to the bidder’s place of business and/or job site and obtain documents and information from any bidder, subcontractor, supplier, manufacturer of contract participant that may be required in order to ascertain bidder responsibility. Failure to cooperate with Small Business Development in its review will result in a recommendation to the User Department that the bidder be deemed not responsible and its bid rejected RECORDS AND REPORTS The successful bidder shall maintain records relating to its M/WBE commitments (e.g. copies of subcontracts, joint venture agreement, correspondence, cancelled checks, invoices, telephone logs) for a period of at least one year following acceptance of final payment. These records shall be made available for inspection by the SBD and/or other appropriate School District officials. The successful bidder agrees to submit reports and other documentation to the School District as deemed necessary by the SBD unit to ascertain the successful bidder’s fulfillment of its M/WBE commitments. REMEDIES The successful bidder’s compliance with the requirements the Anti-Discrimination Policy is material to the contract. Any failure to comply with these requirements constitutes a substantial breach of the contract. It is further understood and agreed that in the event it is determined that the successful bidder has failed to comply with these requirements, the School District may, in addition to any other rights and remedies the they may have under the contract, any bond filed in connection therewith or at law or in equity, exercise one or more of the following remedies which shall be deemed cumulative and concurrent: Withhold payment(s) or any part thereof until corrective action is taken. Terminate the contract, in whole or in part. Suspend the successful bidder from bidding on and/or participating in any future School District contracts for a specified period. Recover as liquidated damages, one percent of the total dollar amount of the contract for each one percent (or fraction thereof) of the commitment shortfall. (NOTE: The “total dollar amount of the contract” shall include approved change orders, amendments and for requirements contracts shall be based on actual quantities ordered by the School District.) APPEAL PROCESS Appeal of any action taken under the Anti-Discrimination Policy shall be in writing to the Sr. Vice President of Procurement Services, 440 N. Broad Street 3rd Floor, Philadelphia, PA 19130.
